    Signs like this recently got banned in the US iirc.

    “Top distracting” for drivers

    But all those billboards are fine

      I’d say a big part of it is that drivers already filter out billboards, but those info signs often have important information on them that drivers are expected to read

      Not here in Canada! All of our 400-series highways have these signs all over the place.

      SOUTHERN XPOSURE

      60 MILES ON THE RIGHT

      All those poor sensory deprived truckers sweating bullets because 150ft billboards are edging them at five mile increments down the highway.
